Fraser represents country in Turkey

BEERWAH High teacher Leigh Anne Fraser is halfway through the ITF World Master Tennis Tour in Turkey, representing Australia in the ladies 45’s team.

The first leg of the tour, from March 1924, tennis players were scored as a team.

In the second leg of the tour, players were scored as individuals competing in single and doubles matches from March 25 - April 1.

Leigh-Anne unfortunately got knocked out in the first round of the team world tour, and was also knocked out of the first singles round of the individual leg of the tour.

However,during the individual doubles alongside Australian player Eliza Purcell, they automatically went into the quarter finals due to a bye, then beat a Mexico and Netherlands duo 3-7-10 to 6-6-7.

Sadly, they lost their semi finals match against a Portugal and Slovakia pair 1-0 to 6-6.

Leigh Anne Fraser has been playing tennis since she was a child, and after a few years break when having her family, she started playing social tennis and competed in master’s tennis tours.

She said playing internationally has been a dream of hers, and she is so excited to be playing in her first international tennis event, while
